I've just bought this Harry Hall and am after some info before I start restoring it. I know the person I bought it from, a keen cyclist in his 70s, and he says he bought it in the mid 70s second-hand, so it could be 60s. It has been hanging up in his garage for years and he now just rides his two Mercians, so when I mentioned I was looking for a project in my size he said I could have this for £25.

It has virtually indecipherable 531 stickers, campagnolo dropouts and the frame number under the BB says SK44JJW55. Pretty tatty but the frame is sound. It has the weight and feel of a decent bike so well worth the money, but I would just like it to be confirmed that this is a HH before deciding on a paint/decal scheme.

From the bit of reading of forums I've done, other people have tried getting info from the Harry Hall shop with no luck. Since he died the place is now just a bike shop and do not appear to have kept records of frame numbers.

Although it is in good condition I've just found the seat post and stem are well and truly stuck in the frame after many years of storage. Not a huge problem as I am in no rush with this and they will be removed.
